I have heard it said that when dealing with large corporations, those corporations have a philosophy of deny, delay and then defend. In our case it took two years but with the help of Kyle and Nick we were able to stand behind our belief that we were right. Foreman, Sturm. and Thede did a great job of defending us and were outstanding in their closing arguments!
